Sadly I was only able to make it for Cartright and Marmalakes on the outside stage, and The Sour Notes on the inside stage . Pics of the inside state in another post. More pics from Cartright and Marmalakes below...

The Sour Notes like to keep busy, and 2013 has already seen them play SXSW and many other shows. They're also going to play NXNE and will release a new album (Do What May) before Summer is through. No rest for the weary...

As discussed, Dana Falconberry's BVAustin-presented Leelanau release party is happening later today at The Scottish Rite Theater (tickets). Check out the video flyer, one of the new songs, and more details below.

She'll be accompanied for the performance by the Tosca String Quartet and Elaine Barber on harp, with special guests Marmalakes and Good Field.

After the party she'll be headed up to Dallas, hitting the road with My Jerusalem through the first half of October. Besides both being from Austin, the two bands have more in common: My Jerusalem's album Preachers also comes out October 9.

The second half of the month has her touring with fellow Austinites Heartless Bastards, as well as Futurebirds (who are from R.E.M.'s hometown of Athens, GA).

Dana Falconberry will be performing with her usual suspects, and as it says above, the Tosca String Quartet will join along with Elaine Barber on harp. Having seen a few DF shows, we're very much looking forward to hearing the additional string section fill out her already-great arrangements.
